You will only get 3 points it would be 6 if you where doing double the speed limit.

No there is no set penalty - he will get what the courts says. I know of people who have been banned for 56 in a 40 and that was a dual carridge!

dont no the area that well but my mate got caught doing 60 in a 30 which i believe should be a ban but if its built up areas you can be chosen to attend a driving course which means you pay the fine but you attend the course instead of recieving points
